After reading around I found that there were various git workflows being used but there aren't enough (or I just haven't found them yet) info on how to use git properly with having test builds.
I was ...

We are doing projects, but we reuse a lot of code between the projects and have lots of libraries that contain our common code. As we implement new projects we find more ways to factor out common code ...

I'm working on a small project, and I am using Github as version control. I made a new branch to test something out, and have decided I liked the previous method better (in the master branch).
What ...

I'm a teacher and I'm about to publish a tutorial on how a build a PHP app in several iterative steps. At each iteration, I want to provide access to the associated source code and differences with ...

I have rather big git branch with code that was created on may of this year and never before was merged with master. Compare shows huuuge difference between branch and master: about 50 new files and ...

We are trying to implement a branch model in Mercurial.

Then I ended accepting the model ...

I have a central codebase, from which I branch subprojects for each client.
Right now I have the central codebase in mercurial repo A and client specific code in mercurial repo B, C, D... etc. I would ...

I'm a computer science TA working with some students in a senior capstone course (effectively, a consultant for a small team). I met with them to discuss how to use version control, and they're in an ...

I have a web app product (PHP, MySQL) for which I offer a bespoking service. That is, you can buy the main product, which is quite extensive, and then have it customised however you like. This might ...

I'm using svn without branches (trunk-only) for a very long time at my workplace. I had discovered most or all of the issues related to projects which do not have any branching strategy. Unlikely this ...

"Code review" (aka "peer review") seems like a really great idea, so my team started practicing it.
For a little while it worked well, but then a co-worker merged a branch in, and asked for a review ...

A short summary of how we do branch managing: From the MASTER branch one or many feature branches can be made (for mid to long term development), when deploy-able changes have been merged to MASTER ...

We are experimenting with "Github Flow", as defined here.

If there are two unrelated tasks, except that the changes are in the same project, and end up touching at least one of the same classes/methods, how do I manage that?
Two different developers could ...

I'm very new in using GIT as a versioning system and despite a lot of searches, I can't seem to really understand how to handle my scenario.
I have this web project that needs to be developed in two ...

I am using git as a version control system, and using git-flow as the branching model. I started a feature branch some weeks ago in order to maintain the system in a clean state while developping that ...

I struggled in how to phrase my question, so let me give an example in hopes of making more clear what I am after:
I currently work on a dev team responsible for maintaining and adding features to a ...

At my company, all of our development (bug fixes and new features) is done on separate branches. When it's complete, we send it off to QA who tests it on that branch, and when they give us the green ...
